Jimmy thinks the Jazz matchup well across the board, especially with Bosh playing poorly so far this year. Boozer should really take it to him tonight, although like usual it will probably be Nesterovic guarding Carlos to start the game.

Jimmy doesn't think it is a good sign that JMoon is starting over ABargnani. Is it to early to say Bust?

Jimmy, I'm glad you're not the coach. If you think Bosh, who has averaged 21 points a game and nearly 9 rebounds in the last three games, has been playing poorly, then you really know nothing about basketball. The guy is an all-star, and he'll probably hit 30 tonight with the way Boozer plays D.

Also, I hardly think that a season and a handful of games in a second season is time enough to judge Bargnani. Good grief, the guy is barely 22. A guy like you would've traded KG midway through his rookie year.

Please watch basketball, and then comment on it, Jimmy.

Bargnani isnt a bust if uve seen him play. Moon is starting at SF to match up with AK. Bargnani plays center not SF. The raps like Bargnani coming off the bench right now, cuz it gives them better use of Rasho to start the games

@Jimmy Ceases to Amaze

Why are you looing at just the last 3 games and not the whole 7 for the year. According to the Desnews it matches up as so: C. BOOZER (26.e ppg, 12.3 rpg) ... C. Bosh (16.4 ppg, 7.4 rpg). Jimmy admits to not having watched the Raps this year since he has had no reason too, but when you compare the numbers head-to-head who does it look like to you is playing better? And since Memo will likely be D-ing Bosh up all game, I wouldn't worry too much about Boozers defense.

@ Chris

Jimmy's comment about Bargnani was made tongue in cheek. Jimmy guesses Jimmy needs to find a better way to convey Jimmy's sarcasm on the board.

I am excited to watch a game where the opponent's leading scorer is in the PF position. We get toasted with all-star SG and SF because of our seemingly weak D at the position. With a PF, well see Memo and Boozer lay it out and come back with a W.

Jimmy knows what he's talkin about, and everyone always gives him crap. Just read his stuff and if you dont agree, dont attack him, say what you want to say about the article. He always seems to be right anyways...

Hmmm...Bosh went for 14 and 7 and ABargnanin was 1 for 11 with 2 points in only 16 minutes of play. Was Jimmy right or was Jimmy right?

Just because Bosh was off the last game doesn't mean you have some magical crystal ball, Jimmy. He very easily could've lit up the Jazz. This guy is a perenial all-star and I'd say he's had just as good of a career as Boozer. It's all speculation anyway. It's not like Boozer played a game he should be proud of - 9 for 24 from the field? The Jazz were very, very fortunate to win this game, and I wouldn't be gloating over a 4-point squeaker over the Raps.

Also, it's easy to dismiss your comments as "sarcasm" when you're wrong.
